The construction of the great iron tow
er for the French Exhibition Of 1888 has
been begun in Paris. The tower is de-
signed to be 9S4 feet high, or nearly twice
the height of the Washington monument
and, if constructed, will be twice as high
as any artificial structure on the globe.
The builders say that the most difficult
part of their work will be completed by
the close of this year, when they expect
to have the first story, $50 feet high, con-
structed. Three thousand tons Of iron
will be used in this section alone. 1t Is
expected that the tower can be wholly
completed by October Of next year. 1t
is to be built chiefly as an exhibit Of en-
gineering skill, but is to be used during
the exhibition as an observatory, and il
it should reach its intended height will
be one of the wonders not only Of the ex'
hibition but of the world.

AUTUMN COLORS.

The russet has more variety than any
other single color Of our autumn. Rus
set of maple is one thing, of oak another
of elm still another. Russet of cherry Is
one shade and different from russet OF
apple. Russet of linden is rarely un-
mixed it is mottled Russets Of pines
vary among themselves-the tamarix,
the pine, the hemlock. Then there comes
a day when all the landscape Is russell
clothed, but in infinite relief Of shades.
There is the brown of corn i'll the stack,
brown of buckwheat, brown Of decaying
stubble, brown of fresh-tuned autumnal
ploughing, and changing under the pass
ing harrow as plush changes under the
passing hand till the ield is regularly
and prettily belted. There is one shade
of brown on the forest TO the east, an
other under the western sky. There is
brown in the near view which is entirely
different from the brown in the distance.
The present autumn has this peculiar
ity: it is the day of older trees. Saplings
are for once left fairly behind in the race
of beauty, by the gnarled old fellows
which were saplings when this Republic
was born, if not before that. Now an
old tree can do one thing that a young
one never can. 1t can change to that
unspeakable yellow which is like nothing
else in all pigments. An aged maple
